Scarlet Cloud Mountain World, Soaring Cloud Peak.
The peak of Soaring Cloud Peak was extremely quiet. Looking at the vast mountain range in the distance, Dongbo Xue Ying's heart was exceptionally calm. Many Transcendents were in restaurants and taverns, gathering all sorts of news and discussing the battles between the human Demigods and the demons. But Dongbo Xue Ying was too lazy to care about this. Would discussing too much help the war? Nope!
Thus, he temporarily threw everything to the back of his mind and focused on his spear techniques.
As the spear flew, its power was vast and mighty.
Dongbo Xue Ying practiced his spear very slowly. As the spear rotated, it was like a huge whirlpool of waves, as if all attacks would be absorbed by this whirlpool.
The True Meaning of Extreme Piercing is a purely offensive True Meaning. It is not suitable for defense! Using the three Profound Mysteries of Water, Fire, and Wind to defend … it is still lacking. Dongbo Xue Ying pondered.
The perfect combination of the three Profound Mysteries of Water, Fire, and Wind was the grade two True Meaning of Extreme Piercing.
It was weaker in other aspects.
For example, regarding illusions, it was only the embryonic form of the grade three True Meaning of Illusions.
As for defense, it had not even formed the embryonic form of the True Meaning of Illusions. Clearly, water, fire, and wind … were more suitable for offense, and were lacking in defense.
"Offense and defense are the most basic." Dongbo Xue Ying frowned, "With just Extreme Piercing alone, the flaws in my spear techniques are too obvious."
Suddenly —
Dongbo Xue Ying stopped his spear techniques because he had received a message through his communication wristband.
The Infernal Palace had gathered all Transcendents for a Transcendent Meeting.
They were asking everyone to hurry to the Infernal Palace's main hall.
"Transcendent Meeting? Senior brother Snow Eagle, why do you think the Infernal Palace suddenly gathered all Transcendents for a meeting? " Jing Qiu had also received the news. She had been accompanying Dongbo Xue Ying by his side. Dongbo Xue Ying practiced his spear techniques while she comprehended her spells.
Dongbo Xue Ying laughed. "What else could it be? Of course it's related to the demons! If I'm not wrong, the Infernal Palace is about to give us a mission. Our peaceful days are about to come to an end. "
"Us?" Jing Qiu was surprised. "We're going to fight too?"
"All of us Transcendents." Dongbo Xue Ying said. "This is only my guess. Let's go. We'll know everything in a moment."
"Yes." Jing Qiu nodded thoughtfully.
Following that, the two of them turned into streaks of light and flew towards the exit of the Scarlet Cloud Mountain World.
…
Infernal Palace Main Hall, Northern Summer Palace.
Sou Sou Sou.
Figures flew over from all directions and landed in front of the Northern Summer Palace before entering in twos and threes.
The great hall was rather majestic, and the decorations inside were simple and unadorned, following the most ancient customs of the Xia people.
In the main hall.
Currently, there were eight figures seated cross-legged. The one in the middle was a black-haired old man. He was none other than the Palace Lord Chen of the Infernal Palace. There were a total of seven Demigods sitting cross-legged on both sides of him.
The eight of them were facing Dongbo Xue Ying and the other Transcendents who had just entered the palace.
"Let's sit down quickly."
Dongbo Xue Ying and Jing Qiu randomly chose a spot and sat cross-legged on a praying mat.
"Brother Snow Eagle, you've arrived."
"Big Brother Peng Shan, Jing Qiu and I have just arrived." Dongbo Xue Ying saw Peng Shan, Cheng Ling Shu and Zong Tu sitting beside him.
All the Transcendents in the great hall entered one by one and sat cross-legged on a praying mat.
They even secretly transmitted their voices to each other.
After the time taken to brew a cup of tea, Dongbo Xue Ying and the rest entered.
"Rumble ~ ~ ~" The gigantic palace doors slowly closed. All the Transcendents solemnly looked at the eight Demigods sitting cross-legged in front of them.
"Everyone is here." The black-haired old man, Palace Lord Chen, said. "I believe you've already guessed the reason why we've gathered all of you! Indeed, it's about the Abyss Demons. "
"Ever since last winter, when a spatial tear connected to the Dark Abyss, the peaceful days of us Xia people came to an end. Large numbers of demons entered our homeland and wantonly massacred!" Palace Lord Chen said. "If they continue to act so wantonly, it would be a good thing. Us Xia people's Demigods would be able to exterminate them all! However, demons have always been cruel and cunning. Initially, their greed for human souls caused them to act wantonly. But gradually, they learned their lesson and became more and more low-profile, hiding themselves deeper and deeper. "
"At the beginning, we killed a lot of demons. Sometimes, we could even kill a large number of them in one go. But as time went on, the number of demons we killed decreased."
"Until today!"
"It's almost impossible to find another demon."
"They've all gone into hiding!" Palace Lord Chen's eyes were filled with killing intent. "According to our battle records, there are three Demigod demons that we've fought with that are still alive. Furthermore, we suspect that … there should be other Demigod demons that we've never fought with! We've discovered some clues. These demons that we've never fought with before are extremely cunning and careful. "
"Other than the Demigod demons! There are still a large number of demons that are cunning and hiding. "
"To demons, human souls are an astonishing nourishment! It's extremely beneficial for them to increase their strength. If we allow them to hide in various places and continue to devour human souls … Demigod demons will also be born among those inferior demons! "
"We must not allow them to devour human souls and allow them to grow stronger!"
"But now, we have too few Demigods. It's already very difficult to find these demons that are hiding." Palace Lord Chen said. "Therefore, we need all of our Transcendents to make sacrifices!"
All the Transcendents of the Xia people who were sitting cross-legged below shuddered.
Sacrifice?
"All of you Transcendents are able to sense the heavens and earth. You are extremely sensitive to the fluctuations of all living things." Palace Lord Chen said. "I need all of you to return to your hometowns. All of you will be scattered throughout the mortal world! You will travel everywhere and rely on your keen senses to search for traces of demons! The moment you discover a demon, report it immediately and a Demigod will rush over. "
"It's not just you. All the Legend ranked knights and mages will also be searching for traces of demons with their One with the World state."
"However, their realms are too low. They are far inferior to all of you! As Transcendents, your realms are much higher than theirs. Your souls are also much stronger! Your senses towards all living things far surpass theirs. Your ability to search for traces of demons is thousands of times better than theirs. "
"All of you will scatter and search for them."
"The moment the demons dare to devour human souls, they might be discovered by you."
"If you discover one, kill one!"
"Perhaps … in the process of searching for the demons, you will also be attacked by the demons and die."
"Perhaps … the demons also have companions. They will also call for help. Even the Demigod demons will appear."
"Regardless, we must kill these demons as soon as possible. The earlier the better! "
"This time, there are many demons. Based on the number of demons, this war between humans and demons will probably last for thousands of years." Palace Lord Chen looked at all the Transcendents of the Xia people. "The Transcendents of our generation are destined to make sacrifices. Among you, I'm afraid that many of you will die under the demons' retaliation. "
"But —"
"If we Transcendents cherish our lives and don't dare to go, then who will? A mortal? "
"We must go."
"As the war continues, the ones who will emerge victorious will definitely be us, the Xia people." Palace Lord Chen's voice was resounding. "All Transcendents, from those pseudo Transcendents to those Demigods! None of them retreated! All Transcendents must participate in the battle. Three months later, you will all leave the Infernal Realm and return to your hometowns. The Infernal Palace will also give out many missions and rewards. The resources that we, the Xia people, have accumulated over the generations, will also be taken out in large amounts. There is only one goal — to kill all these demons! "
All the Transcendents below were filled with killing intent.
Kill.
This was a war between humans and demons. If demons wanted to feed on human souls, then humans could only eradicate them all! Perhaps many of them would fall, but those who survived would continue to fight! Because they were human Transcendents!
"Other than the demons, we also need to be wary of the Demonic Faction!" Palace Lord Chen said coldly. "The Demonic Faction believes in the Great Demon God of the Dark Abyss. In history, they have often colluded with demons. Normally, it would be fine, but now … the moment they are discovered to be part of the Demonic Faction, they will be killed without mercy!"
